Garry,
Thanks for writing this, you have brought up some things that make me think even more as a new hunting dog owner. I wish you the best with your situation, we lost our brittany for about an hour a few months after we got him, and that was heartwrenching. good luck, Ed

Thanks, Ed. I know from your previous posts how much your dog means to you...and your wife. They are special.

Makes me want to get up off my duff and go over and hug and love on my sweet Brittany Dessa and speak kind words to her everyday. Do they deserve less????? Hope your outcomes are rewarding for you and your dogs. Best ever David in Tx

Thank you, David. You are so right...they don't deserve less than our love and devotion.
